Essence Elliott's Concert At Westbridge High School
It's now the day of Essence Elliott's concert at Westbridge High School. Rosalia is with her uncle Gideon.
"Where are you planning to tell your husband that you're Essence Elliott?" Gideon asked.
"I was thinking today after my concert at Westbridge High School." Rosalia answered.
"Are you going to dedicated some songs to him?" Gideon asked.
"Yes, I am." Rosalia answered.
Rosalia used her powers to go to Eugenia's bedroom.
"What are you doing here?" Rosalia asked.
"I wanted to know if you heard about Essence Elliott's concert at Westbridge High School tonight." Rosalia answered.
"Yes, I did and I wish that I knew who she was so that I could get her to sing songs for Mr. Pool." Eugenia said.
Rosalia smiled.
"I'm Essence Elliott." Rosalia replied as she spun around and turned into Essence Elliott.
Eugenia gasped.
"Why didn't you tell me?" Eugenia asked.
"I wanted to wait for the perfect moment." Essence answered.
"This is so cool." Eugenia said.
"What songs to did want to me to dedicated to Mr. Pool?" Essence asked.
"I want you to dedicated Never Had A Dream Come True and One In A Million to him." Eugenia answered.
"Alright I can do that." Essence said.
"Does Gabriel know that you're Essence Elliott?" Eugenia asked.
"No, he doesn't and the reason I haven't told him is because he is Essence Elliott's number one fan." Essence answered.
"Are you going tell to him?" Eugenia asked.
"Yes, I am after the concert tonight." Essence answered.
A few hours later everyone is at the gym at Westbridge High School waiting for the Essence Elliott concert. Gabriel is sitting the front row with Eugenia, Mr. Pool, Sabrina, Harvey, Jenny, Zelda and Hilda. Edmonde Elliott walked out on the stage and took the microphone.
"Hello everyone, please give it up for Essence Elliott." Edmonde said.
Essence Elliott walked out on the stage and took the microphone from Edmonde.
"Hi everyone." Essence replied.
"You're beautiful." Gabriel yelled.
"The first I'm going to sing is Natural and it's dedicated to my number one fan Gabriel Brazier from his wife Rosalia." Essence said.
Essence smiled. The song Natural started to play and Essence started to sing to it.
Ooh
Uh huh
Oh yeah
Doo doo
Doo doo
Doo doo doo
Loving you is not just luck or illusion
It's in the make up of our DNA
It's not by chance we make the perfect solution
Don't fight it baby, you know that it's just destiny's way
Baby loving you comes easily to me
It's what I'm living for, it's all in the chemistry
Baby loving you is how it's meant to be
It's something that is all so natural to me
Natural, baby, baby
We got the answers but there's no explanation (No explanation)
We got each other baby come what may (Come what may)
It's in the science, it's genetically proven (Genetically proven)
'Cause when you touch me, the reaction, it just blows me away
Baby loving you comes easily to me
It's what I'm living for, it's all in the chemistry
Baby loving you is how it's meant to be
It's something that is all so natural to me
Natural, baby, baby
Turn off the light, lay your head next to mine (Next to mine)
Take it slowly, a step at a time (A step at a time)
Come on get close, closer to me (Closer to me)
It's all so natural, it's all so easy to see
Baby loving you comes easily to me
It's what I'm living for, it's all in the chemistry
Baby loving you is how it's meant to be
It's something that is all so natural to me (Oh, oh)
Baby loving you comes easily to me
It's what I'm living for, it's all in the chemistry
Baby loving you is how it's meant to be
It's something that is all so natural to me

Baby loving you is how it's meant to be
It's something that is all so natural to me
The music changes and A Year Without Rain started to play.
Can you feel me
When I think about you
With every breath I take
Every minute
No matter what I do
My world is an empty place
Like I've been wandering the desert
For a thousand days
Don't know if it's a mirage,
but I always see your face, baby
[Chorus:]
I'm missing you so much
Can't help that I'm in love
A day without you is like a year without rain
I need you by my side
Don't know how I'll survive
a day without you is like a year without rain
The stars are burning
I hear your voice in my mind
Can't you hear me calling?
My heart is yearning
Like the ocean that is running dry
Catch me I'm falling
It's like the ground is crumbling underneath my feet
(Won't you save me?)
There's gonna be a monsoon
When you get back to me, oh oh baby
[Chorus:]
I'm missing you so much
Can't help that I'm in love
A day without you is like a year without rain
I need you by my side
Don't know how I'll survive
A day without you is like a year without rain
So let this drought come to an end
And make this desert flower again
And I need you here, I can't explain
But a day without you is like a year without rain
[Chorus:]
I'm missing you so much
Can't help that I'm in love
A day without you is like a year without rain
I need you by my side
Don't know how I'll survive
a day without you is like a year without rain
"You're the best Essence." Gabriel replied.
Essence smiled.
"The next two songs are dedicated Mr. Pool from someone that really likes him." Essence said.
Ooh
Ooh
Ooh
Everybody's got something
They had to leave behind
One regret from yesterday
That just seems to grow with time
There's no use looking back or wondering (Or wondering)
How it could be now or might have been (Or might have been)
All this I know, but still I can't find ways to let you go
I never had a dream come true
'Til the day that I found you
Even though I pretend that I've moved on
You'll always be my baby
I never found the words to say (Never found the words to say)
You're the one I think about each day (The one I think about each day)
And I know no matter where life takes me to
A part of me will always be with you
Ooh
Yeah
Somewhere in my memory
I've lost all sense of time
And tomorrow can never be
'Cause yesterday is all that fills my mind
There's no use looking back or wondering (Or wondering)
How it should be now or might have been (Might have been)
All this I know, but still I can't find ways to let you go
I never had a dream come true
'Til the day that I found you
Even though I pretend that I've moved on
You'll always be my baby
I never found the words to say (Never found the words to say)
You're the one I think about each day (The one I think about each day)
And I know no matter where life takes me to
A part of me will always be
You'll always be the dream that fills my head
Yes, you will
Say you will
You know you will
Oh, baby
You'll always be the one I know I'll never forget
There's no use looking back or wondering (Or wondering)
Because love is a strange and funny thing (And funny thing)
No matter how I try and try I just can't say goodbye
No, no, no, no
I never had a dream come true
'Til the day that I found you
Even though I pretend that I've moved on
You'll always be my baby
I never found the words to say (Never found the words to say)
You're the one I think about each day (The one I think about each day)
And I know no matter where life takes me to
A part of me will always be
A part of me will always be with you
Ooh
The music switches and One In A Million started to play.
How did I get here?
I turned around and there you were
I didn't think twice
Or rationalize
'Cause somehow I knew
That there was more than just chemistry
I mean I knew you were kinda of into me
But I figured it's too good to be true
I said pinch me
Where's the catch this time
Can't find a single cloud in the sky
Help me before I get used to this guy
They say that good things take time
But really great things happen in a blink of an eye
Thought the chances to meet somebody like you were a million to one
I can't believe it (o woah)
You're one in a million
All this time I was looking for love
Trying to make things work
That weren't good enough
'Til I thought I'm through, said I'm done
And stumbled into the arms of the one
You're making me laugh about the silliest stuff
Say that I'm your diamond in the rough
When I'm mad at you
You come with your velvet touch
Can't believe that I'm so lucky
I have never felt so happy
Every time I see that sparkle in your eyes
They say that good things take time (Woo!)
But really great things happen in a blink of an eye
Thought the chances to meet somebody like you were a million to one
I can't believe it (o woah)
You're one in a million
Yeah-yeah
All this time I was looking for love
Trying to make things work
That weren't good enough
'Til I thought I'm through, said I'm done
And stumbled into the arms of the one
I said pinch me
Where's the catch this time
Can't find a single cloud in the sky
Help me before I get used to this guy
They say that good things take time
But really great things happen in a blink of an eye
Thought the chances to meet somebody like you were a million to one
I can't believe it (o woah)
Yeah-yeah
They say that good things take time (Woo!)
But really great things happen in a blink of an eye
Thought the chances to meet somebody like you were a million to one
I can't believe it (o woah)
You're one in a million
Yeah
One in a million
You're one in a million
"The last two songs are dedicated the same person as the first one was." Essence said.
The song You're My Number One started to play.
Oh
Oh
Yeah
Yeah
Na
Na na na na na

Na na na na na

What is love
'Cause baby I don't know
I got a funny feeling in my heart
If this is love it feels like butterflies
So tell me baby

I know I've never felt like this before
You're like a drug
You got me wanting more
I've got to let you know

Catch the rain from the sky
Even hold back the tide for you

To make you mine for now and for all time

Essence walked over to the stage and over to where Gabriel is sitting. Gabriel gasped. The song Two In A Million started to play.
Oh
Oh
Ooh
Ah
Out of all the boys you're not like the others
From the very first day I'd knew we'd be lovers
In my wildest dreams
My darkest desires would I declare to you
Your love takes me higher
Just when we both thought our lives were set in stone
They shone a light and brought us together
We are two in a million
We've got all the luck we could be given
If the world
(The world)
Should stop
(Should stop)
We'll still have each other
And no matter what
(No matter what)
We'll be forever as one
It's a crazy world where everythin's changing
One minute you're up and the next thing you're breaking
When I lose my way and the skies
They get heavy
It'll be okay the moment you're with me
No one would have guessed we'd be standing strong today
Solid as a rock and perfect in every way
We are two in a million
We've got all the luck
(The luck)
We could be given
If the world
(The world)
Should stop
We'll still have each other
(Oh)
And no matter what
(No matter)
(No matter what)
We'll be forever as one
Forever as one
Forever as one
Forever as one
We are two in a million
We've got all the luck
(The luck)
We could be given
(Oh)
If the world should stop we'll still have each other
And no matter what we'll be forever as one
We are two in a million
We've got all the luck
(Hey)
(Yeah)
We could be given
If the world should stop we'll still have each other
(Yeah)
(Yeah)
(Yeah)
And no matter what we'll be forever as one
We are two in a million
(Two in a million)
We've got all the luck we could be given
(We could be given)
If the world should stop we'll still have each other
And no matter what

No matter what

We'll be forever as
No matter what
(No matter what)
We'll be forever as one
Essence leaned over and kissed Gabriel on the lips. Eugenia gasped and shook her head. A few minutes later Essence broke the kiss. Essence took Gabriel out of earshot.
"What are you doing here?" Gabriel asked.
"There's something I've been wanting to tell you for the longest time and I just can't keep inside anymore." Essence answered.
"I'm married you know." Gabriel said.
"Yes, I know that and I know her very well." Essence replied.
"How do you know her?" Gabriel asked.
"I have to sing a song to answer that one." Essence answered.
"Which song are you going to sing?" Gabriel asked.
"I'm going to sing Just Like You." Essence answered.
Essence started to sing.
(yeah, yeah)So what you see
Is only half the story
There's another side of me
I'm the girl you know
But I'm someone else too
If you only knew
It's a crazy life
But I'm alright
I got everything I've always wanted
Living the dream
So yeah, everything I've always wanted
isn't always what it seems
I'm a lucky girl
Whose dreams came true
But underneath it all
I'm just like you
(yeah, yeah)
Don't wanna be treated differently
I wanna keep it all inside
Half the time I've got my name in lights
The other half I'm by your side
It's a crazy life
But I'm just fine
I got everything I've always wanted
Living the dream
So yeah, everything I've always wanted
isn't always what it seems
I'm a lucky girl
Whose dreams came true
But underneath it all
I'm just like you
Yeah-ee yeah
Can't you see
I'm just an ordinary girl
Living in an extra-ordinary world
Trying to live
Trying to learn
Trying to just be who I am
Who I am
I got everything I've always wanted
Living the dream (the dream)
So yeah, everything I've always wanted (always wanted)
isn't always what it seems
I'm a lucky girl
Whose dreams came true
But underneath it all
I'm just like you
I got everything I've always wanted
Living the dream (livin' the dream)
So yeah, everything I've always wanted (always wanted)
isn't always what it seems
I'm a lucky girl
Whose dreams came true
But underneath it all
I'm just like you
Gabriel got a confused looked.
"What did you mean by sing that song?" Gabriel asked.
"That's very easy because I'm actually Rosalia." Essence answered she spun and turned into Rosalia.
Gabriel gasped than fainted. A few minutes Gabriel woke up.
"Why didn't you tell him this before?" Gabriel asked.
"I knew that you were Essence Elliott's biggest fan and I didn't know how you'd react to it." Rosalia answered.
Gabriel pulled Rosalia close to him and kissed her.
"This is only makes me love you even more." Gabriel said.
"You can't tell my fans about it though." Rosalia replied.
Gabriel nodded his head.
"Don't I won't tell them sweetheart." Gabriel said.
~Meanwhile Mr. Pool is sitting at his desk in his classroom~
Eugenia walked by and noticed Mr. Pool in deep thought. Eugenia walked into the classroom. Mr. Pool doesn't know Eugenia at first. Eugenia cleared her throat. Mr. Pool looked up and noticed her.
"What are you doing here?" Mr. Pool asked.
"I just wanted to know if you're okay." Eugenia answered.
"Yes, I am fine and I was just trying to figured out who Essence Elliott met when she dedicated those songs from who really cares about me." Mr. Pool said.
"I'm sure that you'll find whenever that someone is ready to tell you." Eugenia replied.
"That's true and I really hope that it's the woman I'm in love with." Mr. Pool said.
"Who might that be?" Eugenia asked.
"I'm not ready to say yet because I haven't figured out just how to tell her yet." Mr. Pool answered.
"Well don't make her wait too long." Eugenia said.
Mr. Pool smiled. A few hours later Mr. Pool is bed dreaming about Eugenia. Rosalia is sleeping in Gabriel's embrace. Harvey and Sabrina are their beds dreaming of each other.
